Negative for Edward De Vere being the writer of Shakespeare's plays-997018
Based on the evidence that I have found, it can be proved that Edward De Vere of oxford is not the author of Shakespeare's plays. The most important piece of evidence that I have found is that Edward De Vere was dead before a lot of Shakespeare's plays were even written. About 12 plays were written after Edward De Vere was dead. The only way that it would be possible for him to have written those plays were if he faked his death and came back to write the plays. But his life was good, he was brought up from a respectful family and I am sure that he didn't go out of the way just to fake his death and then come back to be excused in another name to be able to right plays. That leads to another piece of evidence I have found. Another point that proves that De Vere would not be able to be the author of Shakespeare's plays is that he grew up in a "rich" home, while his family was considered higher in society. When you were in a high society home, it was looked down upon if you wrote plays, they thought that was for people of lesser value. So if he really used Shakespeare as his name so it would be excused that is very unlikely i think. The last bit of evidence that I found was that William Shakespeare was indeed a real person. Why would his plays have his name signed on them if he was just made up. Someone has it on document that someone named William Shakespeare acted in a theater. How could someone's name be made up and as a real person that was alive around the same area. I believe that William Shakespeare was the author of his own plays and that everyone is just doubting one of the greatest writers in history.

There is evidence that can prove that Edward de Vere was not the writer of William Shakespeare’s plays. The first piece of evidence to prove this is that Shakespeare was born into a middle class family. His father was a Stratford business man, and said to have been well respected in the town they lived in, and his mother was related to wealth and had high social status in society. When he was about seven he began going to a Stratford grammar school. His schooling there was year round, and school days were nine hours long. While there he was provided not only with grammar, but with Latin and he also studied the works of Ovid, Plautus, Cicero, and Quintilian, all phenomenal writers. This having been said he was obviously not a low class or uneducated person, meaning he had skills in writing. The next piece of evidence is that de Vere’s date of death was in 1604. Shakespeare’s most known works were written in the 1590’s through around 1613. The last play of Shakespeare’s, called The Tempest, was played in 1613 and was said to have been written one or two years earlier, making it so the last play by Shakespeare was written in 1611 or 1612, long after Edward de Vere was dead. Lastly, is that the occupations of the other play writes that could be the possible writers of Shakespeare’s plays are far more related to having good penmanship and grammar than de Vere’s. Francis Bacon was a Philosopher and writer, and Christopher Marlow was a play write, whereas Edward de Vere studied law, not grammar and penmanship. There is definitely enough evidence to prove that the plays by Shakespeare were not written by Edward de Vere.
It can definitely be proven that Edward De Vere, Earl of Oxford is the writer of the so-called Shakespearean works and there is much information to prove this-- 996899
He composed and directed and acted in plays during Shakespeare’s time.
He wrote plays and poetry about socially unacceptable subjects for aristocrats. As an aristocrat, he should not have been writing plays under any circumstance—it was unacceptable for this high class, therefore he wrote them under Shakespeare’s name.
De Vere was a highly skilled writer. Something a highly skilled writer such as De Vere would do is to use stanzas in some of his plays (Venus and Adonis) that are only found in his early poems—they were never repeated again when Shakespeare lived.
De Vere was also part of an acting troupe and operated his very own acting troupe called the "Oxford’s Boys".
He had an aristocratic knowledge of the upper classes. He was not supposed to write things of this matter—they were below him—because he was supposed to be interested in entertaining guests and watching over the land. In addition to being a high achiever and aristocrat, he graduated at the age of 14 and he became an expert in the area of arts at Cambridge University. How come De Vere acquired the nickname “Spear-Shaker” from his adept skills at tournaments with other high-ranking individuals? At one time he had studied in the field of law that may have helped him argue points in his plays, and become a good play writer. In 1570 and onward, he traveled in Italy for the purpose of finding out and making the Merchant of Venice more realistic.
Things that connected with Edward De Vere’s life and the plays that he wrote. Another connection between De Vere’s life and his plays: He played jokes on travelers on the same road as Prince Hal does in one of the plays that he wrote. When Hamlet was written, it very much so reflected Edward De Vere’s life. The tennis court fight that happened in De Vere’s life was present in the play Hamlet.
Shakespeare was born in 1590 and died in 1613 after he was said to write 38 plays and 154 sonnets. ¬¬He did not and his date of birth conforms this. Edward De Vere’s was born on April 12, 1550. He died in 1604 June 24.
Edward De Vere Was the Author of Shakespeare’s Plays By 981821
There is plenty of evidence to support the fact that it was Edward De Vere that was the author of Shakespeare’s plays. The three most convincing reasons for this are: the similarities between their plays, the life of De Vere being similar to the life of Hamlet, and De Vere was part of an acting troupe like Shakespeare was.
The most powerful of the three would probably be the evidence about Hamlet’s life compared to Edward De Vere’s life. Hamlet was a character in one of Shakespeare’s plays. Edward De Vere is the only person that fits the assertion in Sonnet 125 that Shakespeare “bore the canopy” over the queen after she defeated the Spanish Armada.
Next is the second most powerful piece of evidence. This would be the similarity between their plays. The fact that De Vere had a high level of education would allow him to write in a style of poetry like Shakespeare. Their plays are so similar that people believe Edward De Vere was writing the plays under the disguise and name of Shakespeare so that he wouldn’t have to deal with the consequences which would be what he was writing about.
Finally, De Vere was a part of an acting troupe like Shakespeare was. It is believed that De Vere composed and directed plays around the same time as Shakespeare. Edward De Vere was a leaseholder of the Blackfairs Theatre, which was a big rival to the globe.
These three ideas summarize why it is believed that Edward De Vere is the writer of Shakespeare’s plays.
